Introduction to Airframe Engineering Design for Manufacturing, Assembly and Automation
This course is verified by Probitas Authentication as meeting the AS9104/3A requirements for continuing Professional Development. Why is a design for manufacturing, assembly and automation so important? This introductory course on airframe engineering will cover the importance of design for manufacturing, assembly and automation in aerospace. It will review what the key drivers are for a “good” design and some of the key points for manufacturing and assembly of aircraft components. It will look at how an engineer can combine traditional technologies with new, cutting-edge technologies, to determine the best scenario for success.

Design for Manufacturing & Assembly (DFM/DFA)
2024-05-22
Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFM+A), pioneered by Boothroyd and Dewhurst, has been used by many companies around the world to develop creative product designs that use optimal manufacturing and assembly processes. Correctly applied, DFM+A analysis leads to significant reductions in production cost, without compromising product time-to-market goals, functionality, quality, serviceability, or other attributes. In this two-day course, you will not only learn the Boothroyd Dewhurst Method, you will actually apply it to your own product design!

COMMUNICATIONS MANAGEMENT UNIT (CMU) MARK 2
2019-11-26
CURRENT
ARINC758-4
This ARINC Standard specifies the ARINC 758 Mark 2 Communications Management Unit (CMU) as an on-board message router capable of managing various datalink networks and services available to the aircraft. Supplement 4 adds Ethernet interfaces, per ARINC Specification 664 Part 2. This will allow the CMU to communicate with IP based radio transceivers (e.g., L-Band Satellite Communication Systems (Inmarsat SwiftBroadband (SBB) and Iridium Certus), ACARS over IP, AeroMACS, etc.).

AIRCRAFT DATA NETWORK, PART 1, SYSTEMS CONCEPTS AND OVERVIEW
2019-06-20
CURRENT
ARINC664P1-2
The purpose of this document is to provide an overview of data networking standards recommended for use in commercial aircraft installations. These standards provide a means to adapt commercially defined networking standards to an aircraft environment. It refers to devices such as bridges, switches, routers and hubs and their use in an aircraft environment. This equipment, when installed in a network topology, can optimize data transfer and overall avionics performance.

AIRCRAFT AUTONOMOUS DISTRESS TRACKING (ADT)
2019-08-26
CURRENT
ARINC680
This document describes the technical requirements, architectural options, and recommended interface standards to support an Autonomous Distress Tracking (ADT) System intended to meet global regulatory requirements for locating aircraft in distress situations and after an accident. This document is prepared in response to International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and individual Civil Aviation Authorities (CAAs) initiatives.

INTERSYSTEM NETWORK INTEGRATION
2021-06-24
CURRENT
ARINC688
The purpose of this document is to provide guidelines for integrating previously standalone cabin systems such as cabin management systems, In-Flight Entertainment (IFE) systems, In-Flight Connectivity (IFC) systems, galley systems, surveillance systems, etc. Resource sharing between systems can reduce airline costs and/or increase functionality. But, as systems expose their internal resources to external systems, the risk of an intrusion that could degrade function and/or negatively expose the supplier’s or airline’s brand increases. This document provides a recommended IP networking design framework between aircraft systems to reduce the operational security threats while still supporting the necessary intersystem routing.

ONBOARD SECURE WI-FI NETWORK PROFILE STANDARD
2021-06-18
CURRENT
ARINC687
This document defines a standard implementation for strong client authentication and encryption of Wi-Fi-based client connections to onboard Wireless LAN (WLAN) networks. WLAN networks may consist of multi-purpose inflight entertainment system networks operating in the Passenger Information and Entertainment System (PIES) domain, dedicated aircraft cabin wireless networks or localized Aircraft Integrated Data (AID) devices operating in the Aircraft Information Services (AIS) domain. The purpose of this document is to focus on the client devices requiring connections to these networks such as electronic flight bags, flight attendant mobile devices, onboard Internet of Things (IoT) devices, AID devices (acting as clients) and mobile maintenance devices. Passenger devices are not within the focus of this document.

ROADMAP FOR IPV6 TRANSITION IN AVIATION
2020-06-19
CURRENT
ARINC686
ARINC Report 686 represents the consensus of industry to prepare a roadmap migration from IPv4 to IPv6. This document describes airline objectives (air and ground side when possible) towards the development and introduction of IPv6. There are three distinct elements considered: 1) the applications for addressing aspects 2) the communication network(s) over which the applications are running for the IP protocol level itself and associated features, and 3) the physical link(s) the network(s) interface.

TIMELY RECOVERY OF FLIGHT DATA (TRFD)
2021-08-06
CURRENT
ARINC681
The difficulty in locating crash sites has prompted international efforts for alternatives to quickly recover flight data. This document describes the technical requirements and architectural options for the Timely Recovery of Flight Data (TRFD) in commercial aircraft. ICAO and individual Civil Aviation Authorities (CAAs) levy these requirements. The ICAO Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) and CAA regulations cover both aircraft-level and on-ground systems. This report also documents additional system-level requirements derived from the evaluation of ICAO, CAA, and relevant industry documents and potential TRFD system architectures. It describes two TRFD architectures in the context of a common architectural framework and identifies requirements. This report also discusses implementation recommendations from an airplane-level perspective.
